Houthis say Israel's strikes on ‘civilian facilities’ in Yemen show 'West’s hypocrisy’

Mohammed al-Bukhaiti, a member of the political bureau of the Houthi administration in Yemen, claims the US is part of the recent Israeli attacks on his country, Al Jazeera reported.

“The US-Israeli bombing of civilian facilities in Yemen [power stations and ports] reveals the truth about the West’s hypocrisy and refutes all its humanitarian claims,” he said adding that the attacks will not stop the group from supporting Gaza.

Israel’s military confirmed the attacks and claimed the “ports and energy infrastructure” in Yemen were being used by the Houthis for military purposes.
